What a load of moaning whingers we have as so called fans, it was an excellent performance, defence solid as a rock, great battling performance, two great goals, Andersen and Ayew fantastic, Ayew was brilliant for the first goal, yes, we need a RB and a CF, but with Ayew, Eze and Olise back fully fit soon, i think the 10th place we are in will improve dramaticly, yes,10th, FFS you would think we were bottom three by some of the comments.

What I liked about both goals was the speed of play and finish. Both assists were top drawer.

We aren't comparing ourselves to Sheffield Utd, Luton and Burnley. I want to look up the table and be a top 10 team. Is this the same scouting that acquired Eze, Olise, Guehi, Andersen, Doucoure and Johnstone at low values compared to value now?

I'm wondering if you and Lanzo go to the matches or just watch the 3 minute highlights on YouTube? Those highlights made us look decent, restricting them to a few half chances and we were clinical on the break. Edited by adelaar (05 Nov 2023 9.04am)

Many comments mirroring those made during Roy's abysmal final two seasons first time round - can't pass / no pace / no movement etc / relying on one (in this case two) players to supply a bit of quality. Sounds familiar? Edited by southnorwoodhill (05 Nov 2023 9.26am)

15 points from 11 games with the attacking tools at our disposal is mind blowing, just mind blowing. But it's not beautiful enough. We really are peak Charlton.
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

It does irk me Teddy but sometimes I prefer it that way, keeps us out of any media spotlight and the possible troubles that may bring but also represents us, at the very least, not being seen in any 'exciting' context... like a relegation battle. Until there is some further, sincere investment in the first XI and a manager with a workable plan to take us forward, it sits OK with me. A very much needed 3 points today, thrilled, plus I got to watch MoTD for the first time in a while! COYP Burnley are newly promoted in the relegation zone who played the better football and were unlucky. We were uninspiring and the win took us from dreary mid table to dreary mid table. They focused on where the drama was. I have no issue. That said had we been spurs the focus would have been how ruthless they are and still win even when "ugly " etc.

However they also bought Riedewald, Marange, Sorloth, Mutch, Mandanda and many other deadwood players. We also paid significantly for those, except Johnstone as he was initially just back up for Guaita.

Surely now that's also got to be the end for Ward. They got down his side every time. Wondering if he was only made captain because we were guaranteed that Guehi and Andersen were going to stay in the summer. Problem is now Roy feels compelled to play him. How can he after yesterday's performance? Wingers just have him on toast now. Edited by adelaar (05 Nov 2023 9.04am) Sorry old chap, but I have to disagree with you. Ward has been very strong for us this season so far. OK, he's a tad off the pace now and he scored an unfortunate OG last week, but he's saved far more with decent positioning and tackles. A stalwart for the club.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

For all those on here whinging at the style of play, Hodgson is almost certain to finish this season.
